Transport Modeling


Mr. Emerson and Ms. Bessler collaborated on the modeling of groundwater flow and transport on the island of Barbados.  The following image illustrates a theoretical gasoline spill on the major highway on Barbados and the potential impact on the principal well, the Belle well.  This is a very smallportionof the regional flow model.  Several of these sorts of what ifscenarios were completed for well head protection strategies. In additionto this modeling, the effects of sewering the west coast of the island wasalso investigated.
